A member asked:
Do you think doing yoga will better align your body (left and right side)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meaning of Yoga: The natural asymmetry and variation of the human body makes it impossible for perfect alignment Practice of performing yogic postures is for health, well-being, awareness of sensations associated with each Asana and self- transformation Poses are tools for learning and moving towards a deeper level of self-understanding and acceptance Rather than making corrections, make more energetic connections
